Thanks!

I sent a "test" message yesterday to that group but still not received 
the auth mail and message did not reach the list. Paraphrasing the movie, 
I'm "lost in Gmanation" :-)

If you didn't get an auth mail, then Gmane isn't able to send you an
email.

And what could I do to further debug this?

This time I cannot blame the mailing list because I sent the message to 
"gmane.test" newsgroup so... any advice or tip on where the problem can 
be and how to solve it?

Two lists to one archive?

Hi there.

Is it possible to have two lists feeding into the same (read-only) gmane group?
 The list suffered a "bifurcation" when the original list hosting site went off
air, and most of the list migrated to a new home.  However, there's still
occasional traffic to the old list we'd like captured for posterity.  The list
in question is gmane.comp.hardware.trs80.model100.

Cheers,
  Daryl.

FWIW, such has happened as a bug, in the past (as reported here and I 
believe ultimately fixed), but I'm not sure whether it's possible to 
deliberately do it.

Someone should be by with an answer to /that/ question eventually. (Lars 
in particular seems to be quite busy, so it can be a couple weeks between 
posts but then he answers a whole bunch in a few minutes/hours.  I check 
the list and there's a bunch of his posts all together.  But sometimes one 
of the other admins can handle it and gets to it first.)

Looks like it's still no-go.  Oh well, thanks for trying, anyway.

Please nuke gmane.emacs.gnus.commits


I've been subscribed to that group for some time and have only ever seen
spam. The right one is gmane.emacs.gnus.cvs, apparently. Could the group
be removed (or perhaps made read-only, if it still has some historical
value)?

Okay, in my madness I tried to post from a different ISP (different IP 
addresses) without any success. But today I tried the last approach, 
posting from a different e-mail address, an it succeeded! :-)

So... is my e-mail address somehow being dropped here or is Gmail 
deleting (without further notice on their part, because I've also checked 
the spam folder and there is none e-mail from Gmane there) the e-mail 
coming from the authorizer?

Greetings,

gmane.comp.documentfoundation.libreoffice.user

Lars,

The list:

<http://gmane.org/list-address.php?group=gmane.comp.documentfoundation.libreoffice.user>

has changed their address to  <at> global.libreoffice.user (for whatever
reason). Unfortunately this means that gmane users can no longer post to
the list via gmane (they can read the list just fine).

Can you please offer advise as to how the list administrator can quickly
get this changed on gmane from  <at> libreoffice.user to
 <at> global.libreoffice.user? The list administrator says that he's sent an
email to you regarding this.

Thanks.

Gmane
